Who is Ellie?

Ellie Mental Health is a highly successful multi-clinic mental health organization based in Minnesota. Ellie clinics are structured to remove many of the daily obstacles that get in the way of providing world-class mental health services. Ellie makes the clinician’s experience a priority by offering: excellent compensation, benefits, training, and flexible scheduling. Not to mention providing centralized administrative, technology, referral and inquiry support, scheduling, client/therapist matching, billing and collections, and even CEU programs. Ellie strives to lower the administrative aspects of providing care to the absolute minimum, so our practitioners have more time to focus on what they love - serving clients! Kind of like being in charge of your own private practice, but with lots of support and getting to work with a great team! We want our therapists to be happy because happy therapists do better work and provide better client care!
